Healthy Superbowl Recipe: Superfood Burrito (in a jar)

This week, we are paying homage to the “Americanized” holiday, Superbowl Sunday (of course with a healthy spin). We replaced the cliche junk (bad fats, simple carbohydrates, and preservatives) with something a bit more energetic. Our fave Superfood Burrito Bowl (in a jar) will not only impress your guests, but also double-duty as a meal prep session for your Monday. Hey!

Whether you are headed to a BBQ, potluck, picnic, or just your familiar ol’ desk and chair, you can satisfy your Mexi-American cravings for spicy salsas, beans, and rice, with these powerhouse foods. Detox daily with fiber-rich black beans, ribbons of kale, and colorful vegetables.

Here are the 7-layered benefits of the burrito in a jar:

Sprouts – Known to be the most nutritious point in a plant’s cycle, sprouts are loaded with enzymes, vitamins, and essential fatty acids. Be sure to shop organic and wash them before adding to your salad or sandwich.

Greek Yogurt – Filled with more protein than the more traditional version, Greek yogurt is a great addition to dishes that may need some extra umph and bulk.

Seal and pack for later. (NOTE: Be sure not to pack the jar to the rim. You need some space to shake and combine.)

Serves 4

Kale. All Day. Err Day.

Hi there…thanks for the love yet again. This post was definitely inspired by the love of burritos, eating on-the-go, and not wanting the belly bulge bloat. However there are a few fresh and delish taquerias here in SF that I wouldn’t pass up. This is just one of those nice-to-have alternatives to the tupperware salad at the desk! Enjoy Skylor!

Hi All, I would like to thank you for sharing this creative idea of a Super Burrito Jar, I think the ingredients you used are the right choice, and the idea of the burrito in a Jar is absolutely innovative, and new to me and I think to most people who read this… I’ve had to tried it but I had to add my twist to it by adding Guacamole using Organic Avocados and onions lime etc, and I also added some Argan Oil to the greek yogurt and pinch of salf and pepper to taste that made it taste so good. I’m going to have it for lunch tomorrow. Thank you again,
OHHH and can I just say that your recipe for the Zesty Black Beans is AWWWsome! I rather make my beans at home and know what I’m eating rather than buy it canned, Canned food are bad for the body and known to cause cancer.

Hello!

I am a compulsive reader of food blogs and collector of recipes (I don’t blog, so I won’t ever take credit for your recipes, but I collect them for my daily meals and my weekend cooking extravaganzas). This is the first time I have felt compelled to write a comment.
Your ideas and recipes totally resonate on an entirely different and definitely positive plane; I will come back again and again!!

Let us know how the recipes turn out for you during your weekend extravaganzas. I don’t comment much on blogs either, so it means a ton that you took the time to do so. Thanks again!
